No.

It has a direct impact on the compression rate used by the connection
(it can be choosen independent of the actual physical link type), and 
hence, it also impacts the bandwidth used by the session.

Hmmm... maybe you can use the PROXY_EXTRA_OPTIONS parameter in node.conf.
You can use that to override NX Client settings, f.e. to always enforce
encryption, or the highest compression type ("modem") regardles what the
client says it wants. Try

  PROXY_EXTRA_OPTIONS = "limit=256k,link=modem"

or a variation thereof. Don't know if it works, though.
